Testimonials

Testimonials“I've had many lessons, been through many driving schools and instructors; but Wimbledon Driving School helped me to pass. Russ and Farooq were my instructors and they were the best I have met. I am a TV producer and did a series about driving schools and this is the best driving school in my professional opinion.”

Rima Rouf, Tooting Bec, London

“I must say that I am extremely happy with the lessons compared to the last driving school. I learnt so much more in just 3 lessons than I did in over 20 at my previous school. I am very confident that this school is one of the best in London, if not the best.”

Paul Tavarez, New Malden, Surrey

Areas to do controls/Moving off & Stopping

It is best to start this subject on a quiet road like Victoria Road.

Left/Right turns and emerging at T-Junctions

WDS recommend doing a circuit which starts on Edenvale Road emerges left on to Ashbourne Road and  then takes the first left on to Stanley Road. On Stanley Road we can take the first left on to Milton Road and then emerge right on to Edenvale Road. At the end of Edenvale Road we can emerge right on to St.Barnabus Road and then the first right on to Stanley Road.  On Stanley Road we can take the first right on to Milton Road and then turn back on to Edenvale Road. This allows the learner to practice steering, MSPSL and Peep and Creep techniques.

Crossroads

The crossroads of Edenvale Road and St.Barnabus Road can be used to illustrate priorities and the extra observation applied at crossroads.

Meeting Traffic

Meeting traffic is a situation where two vehicles are trying to pass through a space where only one car can pass. In these situations it is often vital to read the body language of the other vehicle. This is especially so where there are cars on both sides of the road and no priority exists. St.Barnabus  Road  and Gorringe Park Avenue are perfect to develop experience and understanding of this difficult topic.

Roundabouts

The roundabout where Streatham Road, London Road, Locks Lane and Eveline Road come together; can be used to illustrate priorities, methods of positioning and the appropriate signals for a given exit

Pedestrian Crossings and use of Signals 

Driving down Holborn Way and Upper Green West there are plenty of crossings which can be used to demonstrate the various different types of crossings and the rules applying to road markings. Planning issues can also be addressed on these routes.

Areas to do manoeuvres 

Reverse around a corner can be practiced at the corner of Victoria Road and Heathfield Drive. Another nice corner to use is the corner of Victoria Road and Friday Road. The turn in the road exercise can be done down Victoria Road. Parallel parking can also be done in Victoria Road.
